Great description of a game that I found quite confusing from the rulebook. It's all very straightforward once you know but some tricky concepts to get your head around. (BTW I'm not a noob, being playing games for over half a century, got 100's of games and usually learn just from the rule book!)
Great vid Tom...just a quick question...when you have taken a destination card do you have to deliver your secondary delivery completely can you do it a bit at a time?
You can do it in bits 🙂 You can do as many of the delivery options as you like with one action but you’re limited to a single destination so you can complete your secondary delivery in the future if you pick that destination again
When I load one card into another player's train and the capacity is two, do I earn the benefits? or the load must be full to earn it? And if I deliver a passenger to a ticket tile, can another player deliver a passenger to that ticket tile too, or that ticket tile is only mine?
Just found your channel from this video and subbed. Excellent production! Zoom in on the active part of cards, clear explanation, it's a great playthrough of a tricky game. Well done!
Thank you for this video. I have one question : if you do only a special delivery, do you have to choose an island card ? And do you have to match passengers and /or cargo type of the island card for the special delivery ?
Thanks this informative video! Just had my first play of it solo before I introduce it to my family and had a great time. I'm excited to take on the scenarios! One question if you have the answer, do you still get the passengers on the card when you upgrade with a build action? I know you're paying the difference, so I was wondering if you don't get the passenger reward on the new one.
Hi, thank you for this tutorial! I bought isle of trains a few days ago and i'm obsessed! I have a couple questions: in solo mode, do you HAVE to take the rewards of your wagons when you load them? When you get that reward from loading a car, can you pick cards from the display? Do you have to wait for night phase to replenish said display? And can you keep your previously loaded cargo/passengers when you upgrade a wagon? Can you deliver more than one passenger at a time ?
You can take cards from the display or the tip of the deck, but the display only replenishes at the end of the turn. You keep everything on the card when it’s upgraded You can deliver as many passengers as you want in one action but they have to go to the same location I’m not sure about the first question, I get the impression that they’re mandatory but I will check with the publisher 🙂

Great video! Concise and to the point, but also complete and with some examples. Would love to see you do more how-to-plays!
Thank you! I'd like to do more too :D

You get the benefit each time and the ticket tiles can be used by anyone as long as there’s space 🙂
Best non-Rodney video I've seen in a while.
Thanks!
Thanks for the video, Tom! My copy just arrived today.
Hope I help :D
@@slickerdripsIt definitely did!

There is no need to choose an island. You just discard the card or put the passenger back in the bag and take the new cards

You still get the passenger reward when upgrading

Just had the official answer: In the multiplayer game rewards are optional, but in the solo game rewards are mandatory
Do you have cardboard or playmat on the table?
It's the official playmat :)
Excellent tutorial! Thank you
Glad it helped! Hope you enjoy the game 🙂
